458 - Katatonia Saw You Drown 1998

Katatonia are a Swedish metal band formed in Stockholm, in 1991 by Jonas Renkse (formerly Lord Seth) and Anders Nyström (formerly Blakkheim). The early Katatonia albums are noted for the overall melancholy of their sound, often giving them the classification of Doom Metal or Dark metal. Katatonia's more recent albums have progressed to a wider sound, with modern overtones, dropped guitars, symphonic synths and arrangements, alternative sounds and generally heavier riffs.
"Discouraged Ones" is the third full-length album by Katatonia. While most of the band's previous efforts included distorted or screamed vocals, Discouraged Ones, and all of the band's subsequent releases, feature almost exclusively clean vocals, mainly by Jonas Renkse. "Saw You Drown" is a good, depressingly heavy song that features some powerful dynamic guitar riffs and beautiful clean vocals.
